Other people commenting about AI hype on the post isn't an indication that the post itself was created to hype AI, or that that the post itself is "bad".
If you are eating the baked shit and enjoying it, and a subset of shit-eaters might also like your baked shit recipe, then yes - it would be wrong to say "nobody will eat that shit".
I suspect HN readers won't see enough value in your baked shit recipe for it to reach the front page - sorry. But bake away!
Why do you call what the author did shit? It is resurrecting an old tape driver for archival purposes. It may not have much commercial use, but anyone having those old tapes will appreciate it.
> I said nobody will use the driver. But I am terrible wrong because one person will?
Yes, you are wrong. And also, if you look around in these HN comments, there's at least one person here who says they have a bunch of these tapes lying around and would love to try the driver themselves. So that's two people!
> Second, any post on hackernews is made to generate hype.
Blanket generalizations like that aren't useful. You don't and can't know any random person's motivation for posting something here.
I don't even really understand why you're commenting. The things you are saying are either just rude or unnecessary. Honestly, if you are that cynical about things posted on this site, why even bother visiting it at all?
Interesting idea, however I think more focus needs to be put on ensuring that the photos still represent reality (as much an AI edited photo can). E.g. in the first example under Stage Empty Rooms, the type of window changes between the original and edited photo. I think focusing on more subtle edits to improve the consistency and appearance of photos, maybe with the odd object removal, would be a safer bet.
Gotcha. That's what wakes me up every day! It's a work in progress so this should be getting better by the day. Structural integrity must be maintained! I'm on it.
